Back to school safety for CPS students

About two weeks ago I did a series of posts about surviving high school, but I didn’t really say anything about safety. So I just want to you know tell you a couple of rules that I think every teen should try and practice, even if my suggestions sound stupid.

Are double standards fair when teens are put behind bars? No way.

Double standards in general are unfair, but particularly to minors that have been convicted as an adult and they can’t even have adult rights.

I mean I know I’m only 15, but it just doesn’t seem right that a 17-year-old has the same rights as me but can’t get the benefits of actually having a life when they get out of prison. They’ve already suffered enough having to share a cell and community bathroom with psychopathic adults.
